A University of Connecticut-led clinical trial found that older women recovering from a recent hip fracture who used a topical testosterone gel alongside a structured exercise program did not experience the typical rise in visceral abdominal fat seen during recovery. Researchers followed participants for six months and assessed body composition with imaging scans.
Researchers reported at Digestive Disease Week (DDW) 2026 that older mice given fecal microbiota transplants made from their own preserved, younger-age stool samples showed less liver inflammation and injury—and none developed liver cancer in the experiment.

Researchers at Edith Cowan University have proposed that positive travel experiences could help slow some signs of aging. By applying the theory of entropy to tourism, they argue it supports the body's balance and resilience. The findings appear in a 2024 study published in the Journal of Travel Research.
Evidence indicates that reactivations of the varicella-zoster virus, which causes shingles, could speed up aging and increase the risk of dementia. Scientists are exploring whether vaccines and antiviral treatments might offer protection for the brain. The findings come amid concerns about cognitive decline linked to the virus.

In Japan, community-based agencies known as Silver Jinzai centers allow retirees and older residents to stay active through part-time work opportunities for anyone aged 60 or older. In Tokyo's Komae neighborhood, 85-year-old Makiko Kimura enjoys interacting with children at a local candy shop. These centers number more than 1,300 nationwide, with over 670,000 members.
New research from New York University indicates that anxiety about growing older, particularly concerns over health decline, correlates with accelerated cellular aging in women. The study, involving 726 participants, used epigenetic clocks to measure biological aging rates. Fears related to appearance or fertility showed no similar connection.
